About Me

italki teacher since Apr 26, 2021

Hello, my name is Silja and I'm from Germany. I've always loved to learn languages and about different cultures. In 2013 I did Work & Travel on a farm in Iceland. While I was there I mainly spoke English, but of course I also learned basic Icelandic. When I came back to Germany I started to go to a language school to learn Icelandic. Because of that, I know how it is to learn a new and difficult language. I love music and concerts, traveling, hiking, art, doing sports....

Me as a Teacher

My lessons will be conversational for pupils with intermediate or advanced German skills (B1 - C1). My main goal is to teach you German in a fun way, where you aren't afraid of speaking and making mistakes. First we will set your goal, then I will help you to reach it. To actually speak a new language is problably the hardest part. Therefore I belief it's important to focus on topics you are interested in. I want to teach you how German is actually spoken, rather teaching you "textbook" German. Please note: I don't teach children or teens.

My lessons & teaching style

You did some courses, but you still have trouble speaking German? Or you aren't satisfied with your speaking skills yet? I can help you with that! I want to teach German to you in a fun and natural way through conversation, instead of teaching you dry theory. Therefore we will casually talk about topics of your liking, so that you get a feel for the German language and get confident while speaking.
